It's not colours or tones, so much as over all picture quality. I must have looked at most of the pictures on Flickr that were taken with an NX300 or NX30, but compared to those taken by something like like the G1 X, or say the Canon D600, they look inferior. I agree though, a lot is to do with personal taste.

I've played around a lot with RAW files from the EX1 although that may not be a fair comparison with what I may get from an NX30/300 with the larger sensor.  The 'signature' of the NX30/300 picture quality does seem very similar to that of the EX1 though. If only we could all play with these different cameras before actually buying one!

Good call on the Panasonic G5/G6 as that was another camera that I have looked at closely. My friend has a G3 though and I've never particularly liked it when actually handling it. If the GF1 etc had articulating screens instead of titling, that would probably be my next step. I simply don't understand why manufacturers go to the trouble to making a tilting screen when it would be no more difficult or expensive to make it articulating!

Fortunately, I am old enough not to feel that I've not got to rush and and buy something immediately, but that said,  the EX1 purchased in December 2011 was meant to be a temporary measure!
